Joe's Apartment (Original MTV Short...This is the original MTV short film "Joe's Apartment" that eventually spawned the full length movie of the same name. The short first aired in 1992 as filler between breaks. I uploaded this because I thought people who enjoyed the film might want to see where it all started. If MTV insists that I take this down then I won't argue, I just want to preserve some history and share some nostalgia. I got this film from a torrent site that wishes to remain anonymous - I don't want to take credit for it, it wasn't me that ripped it so I don't deserve any credit.
